MILAN decided to use a 5-4-1 set up. The following players took the field: Matassa - Simić, Cárcamo, La Torre, Buber, Rashid - Medina, Baroni, Özipek, Kelmendi - Weinhart.

G. Orden was ever so close to scoring after an excellent corner was beautifully flicked on by M. Mihalj, but the ball bounced off the post to safety. Lessolandia were very close to putting themselves one up after 19 minutes as R. Korpela got through on the left, but failing in concentration, he shot the ball wide. After some beautiful movement down the left wing, G. Vanbastenko scored for Lessolandia putting them ahead 1 - 0, after 30 minutes. Lessolandia's W. Wudarczyk struck his penalty well enough to beat the goalkeeper and extend the home team's lead to 2 - 0 after 33 minutes. After this, you could see that the players of Lessolandia were more interested in killing time than scoring more goals. The teams went for the halftime break at 2 - 0. Possession in the forty-five minutes was dominated by Lessolandia, with 71 percent of the ball.

With 48 minutes gone, a long pass from the defence of MILAN resulted in a counterattack that set A. Rashid free through the middle, but the keeper made a spectacular diving save. Possession in this half belonged to Lessolandia, who controlled the ball 70 percent of the time.

Lessolandia's top performer was clearly M. Mihalj. However, F. Pelloli made a disastrous appearance. The most dominating MILAN player was without a doubt A. Rashid. E. Medina on the other hand, had a terrible day. The match ends 2 - 0.
